Was no talk among the family "nobles (the older family members that usually set up the family holidays)" going on? I could actually see that with happening withing my family, but in the kitchen there would be a conversation of how inappropriate it was. Even if nothing is said in front of everyone directly I'm surprised nobody had a talk with the host about how to absolve the inappropriate situation.
Lol family nobles.
I'm sure there will be lots of chatter next Christmas!
Kind of reminds me of the time me, my Brother and his Girlfriend was setting in a Bar. Our Cousin comes in, my Brother takes off with her. I take off with his Girlfriend. Me and her were close for years.
The problem is that Mary is with a ginormous douche.
You need to back away and disengage yourself from this couple IMO.
He's douchey, no doubt. I like Mary, I tolerate John. But I'm not THAT close to either one of them to have to disengage. Truth be told, if John was out of the picture, I would get a lot closer to Mary. I suspect others feel the same way. She really is a good person.

I wouldn't say pathetic, but I'm sure she feels that way.

Nobody likes that "creepy uncle" type.
I've never seen it, personally. But he latches on to people, like I said before. I've heard him say "that's my lil girl" on several occasions. Refers to people he barely knows as good friends. Things like that. I almost think it makes him feel needed and popular.

He and Mary hosted the party. The only elder there was his mother and she seemed to be fine with it. I don't know that no one talked to the host afterwards. What I heard, just yesterday, is that Mary has put a halt on hosting any more gatherings for a while.

So she's dealing with the dysfunction by hiding it.
And by changing her own lifestyle.
As I said, I would avoid this couple like the plague. Leave them to their wierdness.
Guess that would depend on how badly they wanted to see that particular movie
Seriously, though, why didn't ANYONE in the room react?? That part just puzzles me
Maybe because it involved adults, and it wasn't their call?
